Hearing the old liar's order, the middle-aged man blocking the alleyway nodded hurriedly, and then rushed out at a rocket-like speed just like the old liar's request, and disappeared into the crowd in the street in an instant.
Less than five seconds later, the middle-aged man ran back with his slippers in his hands, and then respectfully walked up to the old liar and put them down, then retreated silently and continued to guard the entrance and exit of this remote alley.
"Damn it... You bastard is so clueless..." The old liar looked at Chen Xian cursingly while putting on his slippers, with a helpless expression on his face, "You really didn't pick them up until I asked you to pick them up, and you didn't even think about my pair of shoes. I have been wearing it for several years... "
"I wanted to pick it up, but I suddenly forgot." Chen Xian said shyly.
"It's okay, I understand. Pigs don't remember things, so I don't blame you." The old liar snorted, mocking Chen Xian mercilessly.
Chen Xian was the same as before, when he heard the old liar's words, he just smiled without getting angry, and then pointed to Mr. Skeleton who was following behind him.
"Grandpa Ge, this matter is very troublesome. I can't solve it by myself. Let's see if you can help me find a way..."
Chen Xian had already called the old liar beforehand when he was shopping, so when he heard what Chen Xian said, the old liar just nodded and didn't say much, and then glanced at the people who were following Chen Xian.
"Are they all your friends?" the old liar asked calmly.
Chen Xian looked back, glanced at Lu Yisheng and Xu Yanan, and then nodded: "They are all friends."
The old liar seemed very satisfied with this answer. After all, he grew up with Chen Xian and knew what life Chen Xian had lived in these years, and he also knew how much it was to have friends for a withdrawn man. Rare thing.
At this moment, the mood of the old liar is just like that of ordinary parents towards their children. Suddenly seeing that the child is no longer withdrawn, and someone is willing to play with him, he will naturally be indescribably happy, even looking at Lu Yisheng and them. Be kind.
"Oh, you look like the kind of child with a bright future!" The old liar said with a smile, his eyes could not stop wandering around Lu Yisheng and Xu Yanan, the more he looked at him, the more pleasing to the eye, "One is a child of the old Lu family. , one is the Xu family... eh? Xiaoxian?"
Hearing the old liar calling himself, Chen Xian glanced at him and asked, "What's wrong?"
"You and the Xu family understand it?" The old liar deliberately kept his voice down so that Xu Yanan could not hear him.
Chen Xian hummed and nodded: "It's all over, and the two have been settled long ago."
Hearing this, the old liar's eyes on Xu Yanan softened a little. He knew very well that what Chen Xian said was not a joke. He should have put down the old grudge with the Xu family from the bottom of his heart. That kind of personality that doesn't give anyone face is bound to be impossible to walk with Xu Yanan all the way here.
"Master Ge."
The old toad who had been staying behind Chen Xian suddenly opened his mouth and jumped off the sedan chair with a plop. It seemed that he was too old, and his gait seemed to be staggering, as if he might accidentally fall at any time. On the ground, Chen Xian looked at it and wanted to go up to help it.
"Zhenyi..." The old liar seemed to have expected that the old toad would come, and he looked at it with some kind of message mixed in, nodded and said, "Go ahead and sit down for a while, we'll talk about our business later."
Hearing this, the old toad cheered up, and his cloudy eyes seemed to brighten up a lot. He looked at the old liar gratefully and kept thanking him, "I'm sorry for your troubles! Thank you, my lord!"
While the old Toad Chanyi was talking to the old liar, Lu Yisheng and Xu Yanan, who were standing behind Chen Xian, were also quietly sizing up the old man surnamed Ge.
In fact, they recognized it before, even at the first sight... The old liar is the murderous man who suppressed Chen Xian on Jiuling Mountain!
"It turns out that he is Master Ge...the real owner of Yin City..." Lu Yisheng carefully looked at the old liar, and at the same time, he was also careful to hide his gaze, for fear of making the old liar unhappy because of his extra glances, he muttered in his heart , "I didn't expect the boss to have such a backer..."
Master Ge
The real master of Yin City
Xu Yanan also looked at the old liar carefully, from head to toe, but no matter how you look at this old man, he is very ordinary, completely like the old bandit leader.
How could such an old man be the leader of Yinshi
Xu Yanan couldn't understand this question, because in her previous imagination, the owner of the Yin City must be an abnormal life with extraordinary strength, either extremely terrifying, or unpredictable, but definitely not this kind of bandit image.
"Grandpa Ge!"
Suddenly, Mu He, who was hiding behind Chen Xian, came out and greeted the old liar with a smile. The old liar is a more trustworthy object than Fatty Huo and the others, and Chen Xian's attitude towards the old liar is also very telling.
From the respect and trust that Chen Xian showed to the old liar... Perhaps on a certain level, the old liar is really equivalent to Chen Xian's family.
"Ouch?"
Seeing that Muhe jumped out suddenly as if he was going to give himself a surprise, the old liar couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then a look of unconcealable surprise appeared on his face, he looked at Chen Xian and asked: "You bastard Are you enlightened? You actually took Muhe to buy clothes?"
Chen Xian touched his nose in embarrassment, not embarrassed to speak.
"Am... do I look good?" Mu He asked in a low voice, but at the same time stared at the old liar with anticipation, his expression was like a child who had done something good and was waiting for an adult to praise him.
The old liar laughed and nodded. He seemed to know Mu He's character (IQ) as a child. Compared with Chen Xian, the old liar looked more like a reliable grandfather to Mu He, with an old face The smile on his face is also a lot more kind.
With a loving face, he raised his hand and touched Mu He's head, and spoke in a soft voice for fear of scaring Mu He, and he did not see the monstrous banditry before.
"You are a little fairy, you look good in any way." The old liar said with a smile, looking at Mu He as if looking at his own granddaughter-in-law, that kind of undisguised pampering seems to be no worse than Chen Xian, " It just so happened that they sent me a batch of dried Keluo fish this morning, let’s go, grandpa will take you to taste it!”
Although Mu He is not very smart, he can tell that the old liar is praising himself. Although he hasn't figured out what the specific concept of "little fairy" is, but when he hears that there is something to eat... Mu He's eyes light up instantly!
Collo
When Chen Xian heard the name, he frowned slightly, and looked at the old liar with some astonishment, as if he didn't expect him to get such a thing from the country legend.
Lu Yisheng and Xu Yanan were equally astonished, but thinking about it carefully, since the old liar is the owner of Yinshi, it is not impossible for him to get that kind of rare abnormal life.
Keluo fish, also known as Shanxiu fish.
It was first seen in the Wude period of the Tang Dynasty, and it is a kind of "monster" in rural rumors.
"The fish of Keluo, with three heads and one body, turns into a bird when it encounters rain. Its name is Shanxiu, and its voice is like a baby. It is unknown when you see it."
In short, the Kolo fish is an extremely rare abnormal life with three heads on its palm-sized body. The three-headed bird of "Shanxiu" sounds like a baby crying, and it is very ominous for a living person to see it.
According to the data records of the Bureau of Secrets, the last time a living colo fish was found in China was in the South China Sea five years ago. At that time, only one living body was found. After the successful capture, it was sent to the capital headquarters for protective research. According to those scientific research Experts from the ministry said that colo fish seems to have extremely high medicinal value and has a powerful "soul-replenishing" effect...
Thinking of the scene of the old liar being punched through the chest by himself in Jiuling Mountain, Chen Xian suddenly understood why someone would send him dried Keluo fish.
Probably.
No, it should be almost 100% possible.
The old liar must have been seriously injured on Jiuling Mountain!
Don't look at him with a red face now, looking like a normal person, maybe that punch has hurt his soul, that's why Ke Luoyu is needed to help him heal the wound on his soul.
Led by the old liar, everyone followed him into the grocery store.
"You guys sit here for a while... I'm going to get something..." The old liar said with a smile, and after arranging everyone to sit in the front hall, he walked into the back room in a few steps.
At this moment, the front hall of the grocery store looked extremely chaotic, not as well-organized as before, and there were some strange wooden boxes piled up here and there.
Those wooden boxes seem to have undergone some kind of special sealing treatment. The outer layer is covered with a thick transparent sealing film. The material looks like a thicker version of plastic wrap, and most of the wooden boxes are covered with red talisman paper. The written Taoist talismans, some of the wooden boxes were not only pasted with talismans, but also tightly bound by several two-finger-wide iron chains... just like the person who sealed the box was afraid that the things inside would escape. The special lockset with indented talismans is attached, and it is handled meticulously.
Everyone is very curious about these strange wooden boxes, but this is not their own home, so no matter how curious they are, they can only sit quietly, and it is a bit impolite to go up and look rashly without saying hello to the owner.
Of course, Chen Xian didn't care about these, because his relationship with the old liar was much closer than most people imagined, and he felt like coming home when he came to the grocery store.
"what?"
Chen Xian walked over to have a look curiously, but he didn't touch those boxes casually, but just took a close look at them.
Those talismans pasted on the box seem to be some kind of talisman used by Taoist Zhengyi Sect to suppress evil spirits...
"What are you doing?"
Suddenly, the old liar came out of the back room with a black plastic bag like that used for grocery shopping. Seeing that Chen Xian was squatting on the ground studying those wooden boxes, he smiled and said, "Open it if you want to see it."
As soon as the words fell, the old liar walked up to Chen Xian and kicked the wooden box in front of him.
In an instant, the wooden box trembled crazily and began to emit an extremely piercing buzzing sound.
"What are these boxes containing?" Chen Xian asked curiously.
"Evil weapons, and some... evil things." The old liar smiled, and patted Chen Xian on the shoulder, "There is a special trade fair tonight, do you want to go and see the fun?"
